Yahoo! Mail helps you combat spam with advanced, patent-pending SpamGuard technology. Our enhanced SpamGuard uses artificial intelligence to automatically detect and direct spam into your Bulk folder. With SpamGuard, your Inbox stays clear for your important personal and professional messages.
To check if SpamGuard is on (the default):
- Click on "Bulk" in the left navigation bar.
- Above the list of messages, if any, you will see a notice that says SpamGuard is ON or OFF.
- If SpamGuard is OFF, click the text to the right that says "Edit Settings."
With SpamGuard turned on, most spam will go to your Bulk folder instead of your Inbox.
SpamGuard Plus is an advanced spam fighting system that is completely customized according to your individual preferences. You tell the filter what you want and what you don't and over time, this feature learns to deliver the mail appropriately. SpamGuard Plus is only available to Yahoo! Mail Plus subscribers.
How do I use SpamGuard Plus?
You train the filter by clicking "Spam" (in your Inbox) or "Not spam" (in your Bulk folder). If a message is directed incorrectly, tell us by clicking the appropriate button.
- If a spam message is delivered to your Inbox - click "Spam."
- If a non-spam message is delivered to your Bulk folder - click "Not spam."
The system records your preferences and keeps your own personal database of rules to reject spam. (This is called a Bayesian filtering system.)
Smart filtering is turned on by default for Mail Plus users. You can turn it off by changing the settings in the Spam Protection section of the Mail Options page, but we strongly recommend you leave it turned on for the best anti-spam protection.

When SpamGuard is on, messages that trip its "spam alarm" are automatically directed to the Bulk folder - which reduces the amount of spam you receive in your Inbox.
Messages will be removed from your Bulk folder periodically. You may choose to
delete messages from your Bulk folder after 1 month, 2 weeks, 1 week, or
immediately. Messages in your Bulk folder do not count toward your mail storage
quota.
The Bulk folder doesn't generate spam, and you won't receive any additional mail as a result of this folder. The system only diverts from your Inbox incoming messages that appear to be spam.

Yahoo! makes a concerted effort to deliver solicited commercial and personal email directly to your Inbox. If you believe that a message delivered to your Bulk folder is more appropriately delivered to your Inbox, please select the message(s) and click the "Not spam" button above your messages.

If you're ever worried about giving out your email address on a web site, AddressGuard is for you. Instead of leaving your address open to spam, you can use a disposable email address, while still accessing all your mail in one place.
You can create up to 500 disposable addresses with Yahoo! Mail Plus. Use these when you want to give an email address to a site that you suspect might share or sell it. Create several if you shop at different places and want to have a different email address for each store. You can view messages sent to each of your disposable addresses in your Inbox or a folder that you designate.
Each disposable address has two parts: a base name and a keyword.
- Base name
- The base name is the same for all your disposable addresses but it's different from your Yahoo! ID. By using this profile, you can keep spammers from guessing your Yahoo! ID and your primary email address.
- Keyword
- The keyword identifies what you are using the disposable address for. You can use the name of the company to which you are providing the disposable email address, or another word that you will remember.
All disposable email addresses will take the form basename-keyword@yahoo.com.
Example:
Your Yahoo! ID: johnmichaeldelaney
Your base name: dairyman88 (so spammers cannot figure out your real email address)
Keyword: Widget Designs (based on the store to which you want to give the address)
Your Disposable Email Address: dairyman88-widgets@yahoo.com
If Widget Designs shares or sells this disposable email address and it begins receiving spam, you can simply shut down dairyman88-widgetdesigns@yahoo.com without affecting your primary Yahoo! Mail address or any of your other disposable addresses.
To shut off a disposable email address, click the Mail Options link in the upper-right corner of your Inbox. Select AddressGuard from the list of options. Select the address you want to turn off and click delete. You will no longer receive any messages sent to that address. If you still wish to communicate with Widget Designs, you will have to create another disposable email address.
For more information about the AddressGuard feature, take the tour. (Requires Macromedia Flash Player.)

You can access several different views of your Inbox by using the View command above your messages. Click the arrow to reveal a menu with the following choices: All Messages, Messages from My Contacts, Messages from Unknown Senders, Unread, and Flagged.
Messages from My Contacts:
When you choose "Messages from My Contacts" from the menu, you will see a view of your Inbox that displays only messages sent from people whose email addresses are in your Address Book.
However, in this view you will not see messages from your contacts who you have not yet listed in your Address Book. This may result in some missed messages that you want to read. To see all the messages sent to you, select "All Messages" from the menu.
To add people to your Address Book so that you are able to see their email messages in the "Messages from My Contacts" view, open a message from one of them and click on the link next to their name: "Add to Address Book." You can also click the "Addresses" button on the Yahoo! Mail toolbar to add addresses anytime.
Messages from Unknown Senders
When you receive messages from those not in your Address Book that are not snagged as spam by SpamGuard and directed to the Bulk folder, they will appear in the "Messages from Unknown Senders" view of your Inbox. These messages may not be spam, but the sender's email address is not in your Address Book.
To add a sender to your Address Book, open the message and click "Add to my Address Book" at the top of the message or use the "Addresses" button on the Yahoo! Mail toolbar. Future messages from that sender will appear in your "Messages from My Contacts" view.
Another easy way to add names into your Address Book is
QuickBuilder. QuickBuilder setup allows you to search your Yahoo! Mail messages for contacts and add them to your Address Book. It's easy and fast!
How do I view all my messages?
To see the all the messages in your Inbox, click the "Inbox" link in the left navigation bar. This will show you a combination view of "Messages from My Contacts" and "Messages from Unknown Senders."

Never respond to unsolicited email. To those who send spam, one response or "hit" from thousands of emails is enough to justify the practice. Additionally, it validates your email address as active, which makes it more valuable, and therefore opens the door to more spam.
Never send your personal information (credit card numbers, passwords, etc.) in an email. Spammers can fake the format of Yahoo! and other trusted sites. Yahoo! will never ask you to send your password or credit card information by email.
Never follow a spam email's instructions to reply with the word "remove" or "unsubscribe" in the subject line or body of the message unless you trust the source. This is often a ploy to get you to react to the email. Not only will spammers fail to unsubscribe you, they will have even more incentive to sell your address - which you've validated with your response.
Never click on a URL or web address listed within a spam email, even if the message tells you that's how you unsubscribe. This also alerts the sender that your email address is active and can result in more spam.
Never sign up with sites that promise to remove your name from spam lists. Although some of these sites may be legitimate, most are actually address collectors. If a collector records your address, they will value it more highly because it is active.
